Need Mod Ideas
 
So far I have done a few modifications, and I'm wanting to do something else but I'm not quite sure what I want to do !! (As crazy as that sounds).

So far I have:

Put in NavTool
Backup Cam
Upgraded stock Bose system with JL system and Woofer
Plasti Dipped the whole car and wheels (well, this is the only thing I had a shop do)

I have looked at over 50 pages in the mods sections on the forum, but nothing has really grabbed me as a "must do"

Not worried about switching lighting over to LED's etc...

I know this may seem like a lame post, but I love doing mod's but just can't find anything that "wow's" me.

I'm not a hands on guy when it comes to engine or under the car, so electrical and interior/exterior mods are what it boils down to.

HELP ME FOLKS !!! I need to tinker....

Maybe the lit Z kick panels?

A FI CBE will wow you. Guaranteed.

I love my lit kick plates, a nice mod for sure. Also the GTR start button. I don't even know how I found my stock start button every day, it was just so... Not red.

I personally really like the Swift springs. Gives a nice appearance to the car. I know this is in interior/exterior, so im not sure if this is the type of mod that youre looking for, but its a good one!

Not real sure what trim you have but you could always have your brake calipers powder coated as well.

Do you guys have the kick plate part numbers? Thanks

Chuck33079 12-06-2013 09:44 AM

Catback, springs and sways. Looks a little better, sounds a little better, handles a whole lot better.

If you changed the color of the Z, then yes maybe it can be considered a mod.

I had my Stillen intakes, sways and exhaust as a dealer installed accessory before I even picked up the car. Not mods either then? No Z comes from the factory with the lit plates, it's dealer installed. I'm gonna count that one.

I was under the impression the illuminated kick plates were factory installed in Japan and not dealer installed since that's what it says on the Nissan website.

The one to make room for superchargers and stuff? If so, the engine stuff is probably out of my league.

No, it's putting washers on the exhaust bolts to make it sound like you've got an exhaust system. He was ******* with you.

Oh man, now you got me. I've researched doing this, but it looks very tedious and requires a very steady hand. Is it as bad as I imagine?

It's honestly not that bad. Took my friend and I an afternoon to knock out everything except the triple meter in the dash, but then again that's what my Defi Advance RS gauges are for. ;)

I'm sure Digitonium will have more information if you're curious!
